Mmmm Soup

I love this recipe but it can be an acquired taste.

African Peanut Soup

1 Tbl Peanut Oil ( I have used Sesame in a pinch)
6 oz can Tomato Paste
4 cups chicken broth
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 cup instant rice
1/4 cup salted peanuts
28 oz can chopped tomato undrained
1 clove garlic minced
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 Tbl Balsamic vinegar
2 tsp kosher salt
6 scallions chopped

In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, heat the oil and garlic for 1 minute.  Add tomatoes, tomato paste, peanut butter, broth, vinegar, cayenne, and salt.  Bring to a boil.  Ass rice and reduce heat to low.  Cover and cook for 20 minutes.  Garnish with peanuts and scallions.
